So I was fairly ambivalent about "Terra Nova". On the one hand it was billed as LOST meets Jurassic Park, which are two things I like. On the other it did look a bit like Dinotopia, and it had the guy from the pretty dire American remake of "Life on Mars" in the lead. The good news is he's much better in this.
I've now watched four episodes, and whilst I'm a little concerned they're going to drag out the overarching story for an extremely protracted length of time, so far it's interesting enough to keep me involved.
Sure, the guy from Avatar is playing a nicer version of his character from Avatar. Sure the fact it's got kids and teenagers in it means it could be a little too "family" and not edgy enough. Sure the teenage boy's love interest is INCREDIBLY annoying. But it's got charm (and CGI Dinosaurs) so I'll stick with it for a bit.
Plus on a personal note, I think all of the British characters are actually played by Brits, which I always prefer.
